I did the Vauxhall walk with Simon recently and it was a great experience. He knows a lot about the area and will tell you things that I bet you won't find out on your own even if you walked the same place a million times! Doing this walk made me realize how I took London's history for granted and... More

This past weekend I had the pleasure to participate in the Lambeth walk. Even though I had just met Simon shortly before our tour began, his easy nature created an atmosphere akin to meandering through the city with a good friend who just happened to know all the fascinating tiny bits and details of the area's history and architecture (and...

So glad you enjoyed it Celine - the Lambeth area is certainly one of the more hidden areas of London which I take people to, so it is always good to find that people enjoy its secret gems as much as I do! More

As one of the first to sample this tour of Lambeth I was delighted to discover lots of interesting facts about a lesser known area of London, away from the usual tourist hotspots. Having lived in the local area for the last 12 months I was suprised by the amount of interesting architecture I had missed on a daily basis... More

Thanks Alex, really glad you enjoyed it. I'll give serious consideration to a rendition of the "Lambeth Walk" on future occasions ;-) More

We were lucky to have found Simon Gregor's secret London photowalks. He provided very informative, fun, relax walks with great photography subjects. The history of Vauxhall, the sculptures we saw along the way, and stories about the palaces, houses, bridges and much more were interesting. Simon was very nice, knowledgeable and very accommodating; there was no sense of rush and... More

Thanks so much for the review - I am really glad that you enjoyed the walks. Thanks to all of you for being such super company for a day, it was great fun (despite the brief but unwelcome shower of rain!) More

I was lucky enough to get this as a special gift. The walk took place on a cold February Sunday morning. I'm so glad I hauled myself out of bed for it as Simon made the experience all worth while and really knows his hidden London. Thank you. It was a great experience enhanced greatly by your insider knowledge. More

The tour was that of the City, but not the usualy spots you would expect. Yes, we saw the Monument, but that was really the only obvious part of the tour. We learned about the history surrounding the Bank of England and the London Stock Exchange. But it wasn't just history. The speciality of this tour is that he points... More

A really good afternoon's walk. Simon's local knowledge and photography skills make this a not-to-be-missed experience. As someone who works in Vauxhall but knows next to nothing about it, I am now something of a convert. And took a few nice pics too! Would definitely recommend. Thanks! More

Thanks so much - really glad you enjoyed it. I think you may be the first walker I've had who actually works in Vauxhall, so I hope you are able to look at the area in a new light now! Do share the photos if you got some you are particularly pleased with! More

Our group included 3 teenagers aged 14-17 ( all keen photographers ) and myself. Simon gave us easy to follow instructions where to meet and we set of promptly at 10:30 on our Westminster & River Thames tour. During the walk Simon gave us some great ideas on how to take pictures of some of London's landmarks & views and... More

I booked a private tour with Simon for my wife’s birthday. Some time ago we had a full day training session with a professional photographer. We were bombarded with technical information and, to be honest it rather put my wife off photography. Spending a few hours with Simon couldn’t have been more different. Although I have lived in London for... More

Nothing is really secret in London, it is up to the imagination of the individual. However one of the Secrets I can easily share with you and that is that 'Simon' himself is the obvious secret. His passion for photography and the areas he haunts encompasses all those who meet him. He is warm and friend and informative. He will... More
